Tech investor Ashwin
Deshmukh told Tiku he drives a 2009 SUV and has a GPS
docked in the dashboard, so people often wrongly assume he is
there to be a personal driver to whoever ordered a car to his or
her location. He also said one time, the mistaken clients asked
if they could just pretend he was an Uber and take them to their
desired location.

And he's not alone. Tiku collected a bunch of tweets with people
who claimed to have had the same problem.

Tonight marks the second time a random person has tried to get
in my car because they thought I was an Uber driver. THE SECOND
TIME.
